This Samosa  Crescent Ring  was made with Pepperidge Puff Pastry. I rolled out each third of a sheet into double its size and cut 6 triangles out of it. For this, I used 2/3 of a sheet which resulted in a smaller sheet to fit the baking sheet. Next time, I will make a bigger ring so the inner stuffing shows. When I saw the crescent ring picture along with the initial steps in an email from pinterest, I knew right away that I was gonna make it. 

It looks like some seismic activity here, but this Simple white cake  is soft and melts in your mouth like roasted semolina. I used 1 and 1/2 tsp baking powder so it doesnt taste too chemical. Strawberry Roses

When I saw this Hearts of Palm, I had to try it out. I can see that it has some similarities to artichoke and its unique flavour.  How its made Hearts of Palm  shows you how they are made right from growing the palm tree to the packaging.

With Costco's roasted chicken, its even faster to make. When I put in the spices, I had fun crushing the dried red chillies in the packet before adding it to the curry. As promised it is as hot as it said. The final look of the curry too is as on the packet. The design of the ingredient packets with numbers and very simple instructions like 'Add me' are cool.  No Need of Recipe Guide The curry tasted good.

Made Couscous last night and had it with the  Cabbage Comeliness . and I have noticed that it is very filling (same with corn upma aka polenta). While reading up on it, I came across a restaurant review of  Mombar  which almost made me want to write a surreal book after reading this line ' Pyramids of couscous are served alongside age-old recipes, like mombar, for which the restaurant is named, a stuffed sausage dish that Mr. Sayed’s grandmother used to make.' The story would have someone know that they arrived once they are at the place or something like that will be said by a soothsayer. Come to think of places and realisations while watching the FBI story,  when the scarlet macaws were found, suddenly it hit me about the 'macayo' restaurant.  (Yesterday happened to be a significant day in the movie too) Back to the mombar  Menu . another interesting thing in the review is that each town had their own cuisine.

I dont know how or why, I thought I should use mandoline for cabbage and now I am not going to remember that I used to struggle cutting it otherwise. Mandoline makes cutting so effortless and the outcome is so sightly. It takes very little time to cook because of its even and small size of the cut vegetables. I used it for onions and tomatoes for chicken gravy which looks so consistent now. Are my days of uneven curry gravy behind me?

Yesterday morning I mashed the boiled egg and added some pepper to it on a slice of toasted bread. Cap with another that was my husband's intended breakfast but had for evening snacks. while making that I pronounced that there's mint chutney in the fridge and that should be used in the next sandwich. I also recalled the first time I saw my friend make this sandwich. This morning I applied the green mint chutney on the toasted bread and had to use up a boiled egg and wondered if it would taste good and it being morning. My husband was ok with it. Nothing revs up creative confidence like a willing subject. God made internet so our spouses could be happy.  Chutney egg sandwich  is a thing. I went ahead and sliced the egg  (I so wanted to use a mandoline after Cabbage Comeliness  )neatly and arranged it on the toast. There was an arrangement question because of the way yellow came to one side and the symmetry was lost. If I should be rolling over the white boiled egg s...
